Post Description

This is something I always wanted to do, as I love workflowy.com, but I want to own my data.

I had tried a few times before, but could not until now with the help of AI.

This is actually the second try of AI assistance. THe first failed completely as I did not do anything and simply let the agent go free. On this second attempt I was much more involved in the details and code organization.

LockFS is a flexible file-by-file encryption for secure storage

Encrypts files one-by-one from a single runnable JAR, which is nice for cross-platform use and managing many small vaults without re-archiving. The README clearly explains usage, but there’s no visible discussion of algorithms, key management, integrity guarantees, or threat model — that omission keeps this from standing out in a space already served by mature tools like age/gocryptfs.
